ued tonight with the aid of electric lights.

obliged to seek refuge from the throng of
indignant people amid cries of "a la

tins. Inquiries at the leading hotels
show very few English and no Americans

BOsroN's GREETING TO o'BRIEN.
John Boyle O'ReiIly Presides at the Meet
ing-82OOO for Ireland.

Boston, May 29.-Editor O'Brien and
Dennis Kilbride arrived in Boston at
1890 a. m. A large crowd at the depot
received them with cheers and com
mittee from the. local Irish societies escort
ed the visitors to the Parker House. The
police prevented the effort of the crowd
to detach the horses from the carriage and
draw the latter to the hotel by hand.
O'Brien breakfasted with the committee
then held reception in the parors, af-
ter which he retired for rest. AT 5 p. M,
he dined privately with the committee
and at / p. m, went to the Boston theatre
avoiding by means of the rear entrance
the great crowd which had gathered to
greet him.
Mayor OBren met him inside and ex-
tended welcome. The threatre was
packed and many distinguished gentle
men were on the stage. O'Brien was re-
ceived with terrific applause.
John Boyle O'Reilly presided and made
a stirring speech, introducing Mr.. O'Brien.
The latter said he was in bad FORM owing
to the stirring scenes through which he
had passed but had come off victorious.
He said that American sympathy had
been the main stay and hope for Ireland
in many dark hour and he knew of no
living force which had so nerved the heart
of Gladstone and Parnell as Americans

visit to Canada, the assaults he was sub
jected to and the attempts to assassinate
him and said THE murderous work
which Lansdowne went to Toronto to
patronize, which he has publicly eulogiz-
ed and which to this hour he has never
said one word to disown, has recoiled
upon his head and not upon ours. And in
Canada to-day where in the old famine
times thousands of the Lansdowne
tenantry were flung to die in the fever
sheds without drop Of water
to moisten their lips and to
rot in coffinless graves. He struck at us
from Canada and in Canada we have
struck back and venture to say here to-
night that outside of little orange pad
dock in which we have imprisoned them,
Lord Lansdowne no more rules the hearts
or possesses the confidence of the people
of Canada to-day than the master of the
Orange lodge on the Shank hill road is the
ruler and representative of the Irish peo-
pie.
O'Brien read cable from John Dillon
which said that following Lansdowne's
lead evictions and seizures were going on
on all sides and there was more urgent
need of substantial aid from America.
The Irish people are firmly banded to-
gether. They have all the genius of Glad
stone, all the sympathy of America and
all the powers and energies and hopes of
the future
The meeting netted about $4,000 for the
Irish fund.

THE CRUISER ATLANTA.
The Report of the Advisory Board-Fails
to Answer Requirements.

WASHINGTON, May 27.-The acting Sec
rotary of the navy to-day received report
from the naval advisory board at Chester
Pa, in regard to the United States cruiser
Atlanta in which they state Capt. Bunce,
commanding the vessel, was in error in
saying that the power developed by the
auxiliary engines should not be counted in
computing the collective horse power of
the engines called for by the contract. They
say after careful examination of the con-
tract and specifications and full consid-
Grafton of the results Of the trial they find
the mean collective indicated horse power
developed by the engines and maintained
for six consecutive hours TO be lilo per
cent less than the collective horse power
required under the contract.
The board say that the failure to main
tain for six consecutive hours the required
horse power was not due to defective
workmanship, but to the insufficient oil
ing arrangement of two crank pins, The
null and fittings are strong and well built,
The board expresses the opinion that the
efficiency of the vessel would be greatly
increased in power by making a certain
change in the location of the boilers.

STRANGE VOLCANIC ACTION.
The City of Mexico Reconstruction by
the Severity of the Shocks.

the Severity of the Shocks.
CITY OF MEXICO, May ga heavy
earthquake shock was felt in the city and
throughout the valley this morning. At
$50 O'Clock there was felt violent shak-
ing of the earth or a sort of lifting motion
which lasted five seconds. The next came
prefaced by a low roar and accompanied
by stiff breeze and violent oscillation of
the earth from east to west which awoke
nearly every one, lasting 80 seconds
Houses swayed and persons arising from
their beds were in many cases thrown
with force to the floor. Bells rung in the
hotels and every where doors were forced
open. There came still another oscillation
of much.violence proceeding from north to
south. During the shock crockery was
thrown down, pictures were demolished
and several houses followed. The scene was
one of general confusion, dogs barking,
horses neighing and stamping in their
stables. Thousands dressed themselves
and did not go to bed again.
The reports to-day by Gov. Ceballos of
the federal district show no fatalities. AT
the school of mines Secretary Ugalde re-
ports the seismic instruments showed
heavy shock had taken place The doors
were opened all through the school and
the night Waterman reported a swaying
of the enormous building. The water in
the swimming tank used by the students
flowed over the court yard and the clocks
everywhere were stopped. The weather
to-day is still warm and another shock is
predicted Last nights shock was much
more severe than that of 1882.
The heaviest shock of earthquake of
this century occurred in 1858, when many
persons were killed. The shock, which
happened in the night, was followed by
severe one next day the people all taking
refuge in beds. In 1864 there was also
heavy shock. In 1882 there was very
severe one, cracking the front Of the par
lsh church and the sagraio and walls of
the London bank building.

from the old Latin classics with as much
ease and fiuency as though he had made a

OF the proceedings, to the students at least,
was the granting of half holiday by the

The latest news from Rome is to the
effect that Cardinal Gibbons has placed be-
fore the Vatican formal statement as to
the nature of the organization of the
Knights of Labor in the United States, and
the attitude the Church should adopt to-
ward it. The Cardinal is of opinion that
any condemnation of the Knights would
be not only useless but highly inoppor-
tune, and might ALLEVIATE the sympathy of
the American laboring classes from the
Church and hamper the mission of the
Church to the laboring poor. The Car6i-
nal also treats the alarmist theories re-
specting the Knights of Labor as puerile,
and claimed that nearly ohe-third of the
members of the organization are Roman
Catholics. In regard to the charge that
the knights are secret order, the Cardi-
nal says it is not secret society in the
sense condemned by the Church, and is
consequently exempt from canonieal GEN.
-
considers the organization not only harm
less but possibly beneficial, as aiding in
the settlement of the great question of the
proper relations between capital and labor.
